ROFL oh man.

The opening sentence is a doozy.

Out-of-state attorney Alex Spiro brazenly engaged in unauthorized practice of law by signing and preparing Musk’s pleadings, showing up unannounced to defend Musk’s deposition with no authority to practice law in Texas, and drafting and serving subsequent legal demands to Plaintiff. Even worse, Spiro’s behavior in deposition was astonishingly unprofessional, as he continually interrupted the deposition with commentary, gave numerous improper instructions not to answer, berated opposing counsel, insulted Plaintiff ‘s claims, mocked counsel’s questions, and generally acted in the most obnoxious manner one could contemplate without crossing into parody. In doing so, he irreparably disrupted the deposition, prevented relevant questioning relating to Plaintiff ‘s TCPA response, and demonstrated his disrespect for the sanctity of these proceedings.
